JAKARTA - PT Bank Negara Indonesia (BNI) through its Overseas Branch Office in Tokyo is collaborating with Dopang Co Ltd to channel financing or Diaspora Loans for Indonesian Diaspora who have a Small Medium Enterprise (SME) segment.

The provision of the Diaspora Loan is a manifestation of BNI's commitment to the Tokyo branch in supporting the Indonesian Diaspora and also the result of collaboration with the SME center in Japan, which is a forum to support SME players in Indonesia to enter the Japanese market, which was initiated by the Indonesian Embassy in Tokyo.

BNI Treasury and International Director Henry Panjaitan said in a statement in Jakarta on Sunday that this step was in line with BNI's mission of strengthening international services to support the needs of global business partners, one of which was financing for the Indonesian Diaspora who have businesses in their country, especially the SME segment.

"Diaspora Loans are loans/granting credits for the Indonesian Diaspora and are designed in a comprehensive and prudent manner to accommodate the needs of the Indonesian Diaspora in developing their business overseas," Henry said as reported by Antara.

The signing of this commitment was carried out by the Acting General Manager of BNI Tokyo Dyah Paramita Novia Putri with Founder of Dopang Co Ltd Tania Mirella witnessed by the Deputy Ambassador of the Republic of Indonesia Tri Purnajaya at the BNI Tokyo Office, Japan, Friday (18/2).

Currently, there are around 66,000 Indonesian diaspora in Japan with various professions and businesses, one of which is Dopang Co Ltd which has the mission of Connecting Indonesia and Japan's Small Medium Business for a better world.
